Can it be eaten raw, like canned tuna?

It must have mated with a Manatee, perhaps.

It's not exactly warm blooded, its body temperature is around 19C when the water is around 14C. That's pretty cold considering hypothermia is when our body temperature goes below 35C.

I'm sure the Japanese will try; gods help the species if it's tasty.

it maintains a body temperature higher than its environment, so warm-blooded

If it bleeds, it can be killed...

Did anyone else read that fish as Oprah Fish and not Opah Fish? It's certainly round enough to be Oprah.

Now I know which fish I evolved from.

Hi gramps.

Apparently it tastes like Tuna...and the Japanese have already used it for sashimi...so yes...

Most reptiles today are cold-blooded, meaning their body temperature is determined by how warm or cold their surroundings are. But, some of the modern ocean's top predators, tuna and swordfish, are “homeothermic” (aka warm-blooded), or able to keep their body temperatures at a constant temperature despite changing environmental conditions.

wat?

Oh, Tuna only warm some muscles, not all organs.

This is the first FULLY warm blooded fish.

I wonder if this one is thinking the same thing about that diver?
